Patent EP-0932188-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KIRCHHOF MARKUS
IPC: C23C16/40
Filed: 1998-12-07
Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for forming a fluorine doped
borophosphosilicate (F-BPSG) glass on a semiconductor device using a low
pressure chemical vapor deposition process. The F-BPSG glass exhibits a
substantially void-free and particle-free layer on the substrate for
structures having gaps as narrow as 0.10 microns and with aspect ratios
of 6:1. The reactant gases include sources of boron and phosphorous
dopants, oxygen and a mixture of TEOS and FTES. Using a mixture of TEOS
and FTES in a low pressure CVD process provides a F-BPSG layer having the
above enhanced characteristics. Preferably the glass deposition is
performed at a temperature of about 750-850°C and a pressure of 1 to 3
torr to provide for in situ reflow of the F-BPSG during the deposition
process. An anneal is also preferred under similar conditions in the
same chemical vapor deposition chamber to further planarize the F-BPSG
surface.

Abstract: An autofocus process for imaging optics of a scanner comprises
performing multiple scan-line image captures of the document to be
scanned. In the preferred embodiment, these captures are of
essentially the same scan-line. A focal position of imaging optics,
which forms a scan-line image, is adjusted relative to an image
detector in between the multiple scan-line captures of image data.
In the preferred embodiment, the imaging optics is adjusted. Relay
optics or a position of the image detector could alternatively be
adjusted. In any case, a focus setting for a subsequent scanning
operation is then calculated based on the image data from the
multiple scan-line captures. In the preferred embodiment, this
calculation yields a lens position for the imaging optics. The
invention thus allows autofocusing to the document to be scanned.
Problems associated with loss of calibration are avoided. Moreover,
the system is able to adapt to documents where the image is not at
the scanner's nominal focal plane.

Abstract: A linear encoder system includes an encoder magnet having alternating
magnetic zones. The end ones of the magnetic zones are tapered. A distance
between the centers of the tapered magnetic zones defines a span. First and
second encoder sensors, sensitive to the alternating magnetic zones, are spaced
apart a distance equal to the span. As the encoder magnet moves into alignment
with one tapered magnetic zone, and out of alignment with the other magnetic
zone, the decrease in signal from one magnetic zone is approximately equal to the
increase in signal from the other magnetic zone. In one embodiment of the
invention, a third encoder sensor is positioned midway between the first and
second encoder sensors.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des procédés et dispositifs perfectionnant les standards cryptographiques et durcissant les protocoles cryptographiques contre les agressions par surveillance. En l'occurrence, on diminue la quantité de données utiles fuyant au cours du traitement, et partant le rapport signal-bruit. La réalisation perfectionnée du standard cryptographique met en oeuvre deux clés à 56 bits (K1 et K2) et deux messages en clair à 64 bits (M1 et M2), associés chacun à une permutation, par exemple K1P, K2P et M1P, M2P de façon que K1P {K1} XOR K2P {K2} soit égal à la clé K 'normalisée' du standard cryptographique, et que M1P {M1} XOR M2P {M2} soit égal au message 'normalisé'. Pendant le fonctionnement du dispositif, les tables sont mises à jour périodiquement. En l'occurrence, elles intègrent de l'entropie récente plus rapidement que l'information ne fuit. Il en résulte que les agresseurs n'ont aucun moyen de voir le contenu des tables par analyse de mesures. Ce procédé peut se mettre en oeuvre dans tous types de cartes à puces cryptographiques, microprocesseurs inviolables et systèmes de traitement sécurisés.

Inventor: SPINDLER JOERG
IPC: G01N33/80
Filed: 1999-12-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for detecting antibodies or antigens in a test fluid as well as for determining blood groups by reaction with a defined specific binding partner. The antigen or antibody or specific binding partner are either present in free form in the test fluid or bonded to a support. In case of a positive antigen-antibody reaction an agglutinate of antigens or antibodies, the corresponding binding partners and the support materials is formed, which can be optically detected. A microreaction vessel having a cross-section which narrows from the top downwards contains a viscous substance, notably a gel. A test fluid is placed into the vessel. The specific binding partner is added to either the test fluid or the gel, or a liquid containing said binding partner is added to the vessel after the test fluid has been placed in it. The sedimentation image is then evaluated optically. A flat agglutinate of antigens or antibodies, binding partners and support materials indicates a positive antigen-antibody reaction, a deposit of antigens or antibodies and binding partners and/or support materials in the lower, narrow area of the vessel indicates a negative reaction. The above method can be carried out in a fully automated manner, for example by using a pipetting robot.
